How to order hosting, step by step
From choosing a plan to a live website, including what happens with your domain name.
Last updated 2026-10-03
The steps
- Choose a plan on the pricing page and press Get started.
- Create your account. Your name, email address and a password. If you already have an account, log in instead.
- Enter your domain name. If you already own one, type it in: you can point it at Hosteaze afterwards. If you need a new one, search for it on the domains page first.
- Check the price shown, including the first-year price and what it becomes afterwards.
- Pay by card. A receipt is emailed to you.
- Your website is set up automatically. It normally takes a minute or two, and you will see its status under My Hosting.
After you order
- Your control panel is under My Hosting.
- If you own the domain elsewhere, point it at Hosteaze so visitors reach your new website.
- To start a WordPress site, see Install WordPress.
- To set up email, see Create a mailbox.
If something goes wrong
If your payment did not go through or the website is still not ready after a few minutes, open a support ticket, or ask the chat.
